Hi Ivan

A wonderful diagonal composition with this very beautiful butterfly!
I really like the POV here - with its wings wide opened - and teh sharpness of the details.
Also the POV is great, the exposure isspot-on and the colros are charming and well saturated.
I quite like the framing, too, as well as the contrast between the light green of the grass and the darker colors of the butterfly.
Very well done!

Bravo and TFS

Hello Ivan,
very clear and precise portrait of this rather unspectacular and rare little beauty. With very careful handling of contrast you have made even the slightest shades of colours well visible. Nice, well balanced composition.
Valuable addition to the TN collection of outstanding butterfly portraits of less known species.
With thanks, and best regards,
Peter

Hej Ivan,
this rare butterfly is a really beauty. Lovely colours and pattern. Sharpness and exposure are very good. The butterfly is well seen against the BG.
Well done.

De ska tydligen finnas här i närheten, vid Testeboån.
Jag får leta i vår och sommar.

Hello Ivan,
This is just a great macro with great detail in a natural setting background. Focus, composition and depth of field are all good.

A beautiful dark coloured butterfly with yellow spots on the wings and at the tips of its antennae, Ivan.
Ideal POV, great sharpness and a pleasant overall composition.

Hi Ivan.
I like your perfectly composed shot so much. Very nice diagonal construction of the picture, excellent details and sharpness, soft lighting and delicate tones. BG is simply wonderful by its blurriness and colours. My compliments and TFS.

Hi Ivan,
I very rarely use a telelens for taking shots of insects. Just because I often face the difficulty of motion in the picture.
But you seem to have a steady hand. Great work! Did you also use flash (looks a bit that way)? Also a nice butterfly. Must say I've never seen this species, but I think it's beautiful.
Regards, JAcob

Hello Argus,
a professional picture of diamina. The species can be recognized even on the thumbnail. Very good focus and sharpness and attractive natural colours as usual. The specimen you found is completely intact - I don't miss any scale on the wings' upperside!
Bewt wishes, Peter
